Abstract
A first sweep signal consists of a plurality of waveforms having non-invariant fundamental periods exhibiting a monotonic frequency progression of at least one octave over the duration of the sweep. Each waveform may consist of an ordered set of asymmetrical pulses distributed within the period of the waveform in a prescribed sequence as a function of time. A second sweep signal is orthogonalized with respect to the first by time-reversing the distribution-sequence of the pulse set.
